| 520 | _a"Horsesense Hank Does His Bit" by Nelson S. Bond is a humorous novella written during the early 1940s, amid the backdrop of World War II. The story revolves around the titular character, Horsesense Hank Cleaver, a man of common sense and mathematical prowess, who feels compelled to contribute to the war effort after the bombing of Pearl Harbor. This light-hearted narrative combines elements of adventure and comedy as it explores themes of patriotism, ingenuity, and the value of practical knowledge in a time of crisis. In the story, Hank, along with his friend Jim Blakeson, volunteers at the Northern Bridge, Steel and Girder Company, eager to assist in defense work. However, after initially being welcomed, Hank finds himself dismissed by a government efficiency expert named Mr. Grimper. Undeterred, Hank solves several pressing problems using his unique brand of common sense, culminating in a thrilling confrontation with German saboteurs at the factory. Hank's quick thinking and unconventional approach save the day, and in a twist of fate, he is offered a position as a confidential adviser to the President. The novella showcases Hank’s earnestness and cleverness, highlighting the importance of ingenuity and determination during challenging times. (This is an automatically generated summary.) | ||
